IDMS Interview Question:

What is a set in IDMS? What pointers are required, what are possible? How may sets be ordered?

Submitted by: Administrator

A set is an owner record and, optionally, its member records. There are three types of pointers: next, prior and owner, but only next is required. There are five possible orders for arrangements of sets; they are: first - insert at beginning, last - insert at end of set, next - insert after current of set, prior - insert prior to current of set and sorted - insert according to sort value.
